I was offered a job at a computer repair shop at age 14. Dude had to retract his offer when I told him my age, he assumed I was 17 or older.

Karolina Protsenko, the famous young violinist, said she keeps her violin with her at all times ever since someone broke into her parents’ SUV. Luckily they didn’t take or damage her violin, but they did get away with multiple electronics and microphones and stuff.
You gotta hate thieves 😡
They’d have to find my archives first, absolutely none of them are on the frontend. I don’t use the archive in any normal manner, and the links are effectively randomized so there’s no chance of just guessing any of my links.
I’ve been doing it for years and they haven’t pulled anything down yet.
Edit: Yes that’s clearly an archived website and not a file to direct download, but that same if_ banner bypass trick works just the same for individual file downloads.
Wanna watch a trick?

You can follow that link, it’s perfectly safe, and rather funny no less. It links to the archive…
Note the if_ after the date/time code. That bypasses their banner. None of my links are anywhere on the frontend of the archive, you literally have to know every link to find my archives.
And most of my archives aren’t even of websites, most of them are direct file downloads of older operating systems and games and stuff. Not like I’m about to share any of those here though.
I’ve been doing that for years and they haven’t found or removed a single thing I’ve archived. If they ever do, well so be it, but none of it is on the frontend, and the links are so obscure that there’s basically zero chance of anyone just randomly guessing them.
Funny you’d say that. If you manipulate the link and add if_ or fw_ after the date code, you can most certainly download files directly from the wayback machine.
Look towards the bottom of the page, ‘Save Page Now’
Snapshot feature. Apparently you’re not familiar with it.
I don’t even have an account silly. Think I’m stupid enough to do that?
Never heard of the snapshot feature have ya?
I’ve got terabytes of things archived, still there.
As a former BMX flatland rider, I’m almost ambidextrous. Almost.
But if you ask me to write my name with my left hand, you’ll get jibberish.
I only came across a spare pair like 2 weeks ago, so I totally understand the confusion.
Mildly interesting update…
I wish the glasses case was neon yellow instead, because apparently blue is impossible to find in the dark. 🤷♂️
What’s the opposite of congress?

I do have a bright blue case, but that’s where I keep my emergency backup glasses. That stays at home though, every time I lose my glasses seems to be when I’m staying the night at a friend’s place…
I’m known to roll around in my sleep. And I’ve accidentally knocked my glasses off of my nightstand, apparently with my blanket, and couldn’t find them for days.
On more than one occasion no less. Do you know how difficult it is to get anyone to help you find your glasses when everyone else thinks you’re full of shit?
My vision is like 20/500 without glasses.
No. That just makes me more likely to lose my glasses. I usually just wear them, 24/7…
The optional part was whether I wear my glasses while I sleep, as I usually have all my life, or place them on the nightstand…
I have to find my glasses. If your vision was so bad as mine that you can’t find your own glasses, and you’re two days out of work because they fell behind the night stand and you can’t see to find them, you’d understand…
Interesting. I’m not quite sure what the laws were back in 1996, but yeah with school and all, plus the travel distance of over 30 miles, even if it was legal for me to work a few hours a day after school, it wouldn’t have been practical at all.
Still nice that he offered the job, I was trying to brainstorm and troubleshoot why my first sound card didn’t work. Turned out he got a defective batch, like 3 other customers had the same issues.
He knew I did all the proper troubleshooting already. Honestly I forget what model sound card it was, but once I proved it didn’t work, he gave me a different card that cost twice as much, for no extra money.
